    Baseball Slant Who says you don't learn anything from a fictional sim league

    I learned what an Ulna is today. John Smith Broke his Ulna and is out 5 weeks. What is an Ulna you ask, well according to wikipedia an Ulna is; is a long bone, prismatic in form, placed at the medial side of the forearm, parallel with the radius.

    Wow...only 5 weeks...thats impressive healing power. I once snapped my radius and ulna just below the wrist joint on my throwing arm...double-displaced complete Colles fractures...I was in a long arm cast for 13 weeks and then another 4 of physical therapy before I was even allowed to do anything that put stress on my wrist...then another 6 after that before I got back to full speed baseball activity...so it could be a lot worse

    Playing Pittsburgh all the time causes re-aggravation.

    The only thing these leagues have taught me is that if I ever get a real MLB front office job, your team is doomed.

    More or less. I actually find it fun collecting fossils in these leagues. Terry Fortuna is dying slowly before my eyes after giving him a 16 mil per extension. RIP.

    Yes, my team did. But at least I had Fortuna and Marceau... now I have Marceau and Fortuna's corpse.
